Sun Yuanqi certainly knew that he could not defeat Chen Kuilong, and he was not willing to bow his head and submit. At this time, running away was the best choice. In this way, we can avoid intensification of conflicts and can also be promoted to a higher level: who can go to Beijing to be the deputy minister of education, but who wants to stay in the local area and serve as a senior official in charge of science, education, culture and health?
??This is the rational decision, but it is difficult to make an emotional decision: I built the school by myself, set the teaching materials by myself, and hired the teachers by myself. How can I be willing to leave others alone? Especially the newly established schools are just like babies born and waiting to be fed. No matter how good the nanny is, how can parents be willing to leave their children to others to take care of?
The conflict between emotion and reason makes it difficult for Sun Yuanqi to make a sudden decision. Fortunately, in the next month or so, various schools were so busy with enrollment, admission, and school opening matters that he had no time to think about this issue. Even if Yang Du asked, Sun Yuanqi would just pass it by with the excuse of "being busy for this period of time", always hoping to delay it day by day.
Chen Kuilong has not done anything unusual these days. Sun Yuanqi is naturally happy to hear about this situation, but he doesn't know how long this calm can last. And there is something strange underneath the surface calm, which makes Sun Yuanqi a little unpredictable: Is this a misjudgment by Yang Du and Chen Qiansheng, or is it the calm before the storm?
As we enter the tenth month of the lunar calendar, the autumn wind gradually turns colder. Rumors about Cixi and Guangxu being seriously ill are rampant. People in the officialdom cannot avoid meeting with worries and sighs. Everyone can feel that there is a thick dark cloud hanging over the empire. .
According to historical records, Cixi and Guangxu should have completed their final journeys in life during this period, but no news has been received. This made Sun Yuanqi a little unsure: Could it be that the appearance of his own butterfly caused the two people in the palace to live longer? ? If this is the case, your sin will be great.
At this time, after nearly ten months of preparations, the casting and stamping workshop of the Beiping Iron Works was finally ready for trial operation. Because the exploration mission has just been completed not long ago, it is impossible for the mining, mineral processing, ironmaking, steelmaking and other workshops to be operational until April or May next year. Even so, Yasser still sent a telegram excitedly to ask about the next step.
The next step is to produce helmets, but making helmets is not an easy task. For example, the size and shape of the helmet must be determined based on the actual situation of the buyer. Can the size and model of the American head be the same as that of the Japanese?
Another example is the material of helmets. Currently, there are hundreds of types of steel, each with its own use. Some steels are used to make helmets, which not only have poor bulletproof effect, but also cause greater secondary damage. Wearing them is worse than not wearing them.
Another example is the camouflage coating on the outside of the helmet, which also needs to be adjusted according to the combat environment. When fighting in the desert, your helmet is in snow camouflage, which is as noticeable as a firefly's butt in the dark night. Isn't that asking for death? ¡
All of these require face-to-face instruction. Coupled with the recent cold weather and the old man's physical discomfort, Sun Yuanqi decided to go north again.
When he arrived in Beijing, Sun Yuan first came to Yasier and explained the idea of ??producing helmets to him in detail. After hearing this, Yasir nodded repeatedly: "This invention is great! We have to register the patent quickly. If it works properly, we can make much more money than a light bulb!"
Sun Yuanqi smiled bitterly in his heart: Yes, this is indeed a profitable business, but it is only for foreign countries. Because whether it is the steel helmet designed now or the body armor to be invented in the future, the Chinese army does not need it. The reason is simple: Chinese lives are the least valuable.
In China, as long as necessary, you can recruit as many young men as you want from the vast countryside at any time, without any reason. If time permits, the warlords will conduct simple training for the young men. If you don't have time, just push them onto the battlefield. Sometimes they don't even know how to shoot. If the battle ends unscathed, you are lucky. If you get hurt, just leave it to fate. As for the dead, no one cares about them anymore. pension? There¡¯s no such thing as that! The army's attrition is too serious, and it's just a matter of going to Latin America in the countryside.
¡°In Western countries, the lives of soldiers are much more valuable. First of all, in a small country with few people, life is precious. Secondly, conscription must comply with legal procedures. Third, recruits must undergo rigorous military training and be equipped with weapons. Fourth, soldiers have allowances. Fifth, if you are injured, you need to work hard to treat yourself. If you die, you will need to pay a huge pension. In order to save financial expenditure, the government must try to reduce casualties as much as possible. In order to reduce casualties, helmets and body armor are purchased in large quantities.
Regarding the current problem, Yasser volunteered to take on the task of measuring the shape and size of European and American heads. Sun Yuanqi was overjoyed and naturally agreed to all requests.
At first, I thought that Yasir would ask relatives and friends for help after returning to China. Unexpectedly, he ran to Dongjiao with a ruler and forms the next day.This paragraph is not good, please change it as I said: Lai Cixun looked up to it, the saint considered it carefully, and the minister obeyed and handled it, so he was able to overcome the skin problem. Today in Hubei Province there are more than 3,000 primary schools, over 1,000 high schools, and nearly 100 higher education, normal, and industrial schools. Students from the two lakes normal schools spread literature and education in various provinces and achieved great results. The intensive study of objects in higher industrial schools has greatly benefited people's livelihood and contributed to the country. The new schools of transportation, mining, petroleum, geology, etc. have all enrolled students, and the students unanimously praised the empress dowager and the emperor for their merits. Thai and Western scholars are eager to come to court¡ª¡ª"
When Sun Yuanqi heard this, he couldn't help but stop writing: "Uncle, there are currently no international students willing to go to schools in Hubei!"
The old man frowned and asked: "Baixi, do you know the purpose of the Queen Mother sending you to Hubei?"
"To develop education, build schools." Sun Yuanqi answered honestly.
¡°What¡¯s the purpose of building a school?¡±
"Recruiting students."
"To be specific, it should be recruiting foreign students!" the old man said. "The Empress Dowager saw that Jingshi University could save her a million dollars every year, so she sent you to Hubei to set up a school. Presumably Zhang Nanpi, Zhao Cishan, Chen Yong'an also knows the Empress Dowager's thoughts, so he lets you do whatever you want, otherwise how could he have so much money for you to squander?"
"But now that the memorial has been submitted, what if the Empress Dowager is serious and no foreign students come?"
The old man stood up reluctantly while holding on to the chair, approached Sun Yuanqi and whispered: "Since June, the Queen Mother has been feeling unwell. In September, diarrhea became more common. Nowadays, the diarrhea cannot be cured for a long time, and it is getting more serious. Famous doctors have been selected. All treatments have no effect. I'm afraid"
Sun Yuanqi immediately understood what the old man meant: first make Cixi happy, since she only has a few days to live anyway. When the emperor changes, who will still remember this?
Seeing that Sun Yuanqi understood the truth, the boss continued to dictate: "If the decree is obeyed, in a few years, Bahuang will definitely come to study, and he will be in trouble without saying anything!"
After correcting it, I copied it again, checked it was correct, and handed it into the palace. Before Sun Yuanqi's train arrived in Hankou, the Military Aircraft Department had already forwarded an edict: "With the title of right minister of the academic department, Sun Yuanqi, the Hubei academic envoy, is appointed as the left minister of the academic department. I hereby express my gratitude."
A week later, there was chaos outside the Wanshou Hall in the Summer Palace in Beijing. The Empress Dowager Cixi was suffering from dysentery, and the Empress Dowager's Hospital issued a "critical illness notice" a few days ago. Everyone knew that her death was coming within a few days, and they were all in panic all day long. All the high-profile princes and ministers in Beijing gathered here. At that time, even Guangxu's empress Longyu was here all day long. She didn't bother to wash and dress up, and looked like a woman in distress. She walked in and out of the room, and the ministers had no time to pay her respects.
But the more you want her to die, the less likely she is to die. She hangs there in a daze, making people outside dare not leave for a moment for fear of suddenly burping. After waiting for a long time, the princes and ministers who lived a comfortable life became a little exhausted, so they found a random step or stone bench to sit down outside, anywhere. The situation was very embarrassing. Everyone is waiting for people to cry in the house and mourn outside.
At this time, a eunuch came out of Leshou Hall carrying a covered bowl. Pu Liang, the Minister of Etiquette who was resting under the eaves, quickly stood up and said, "My father-in-law, what are you carrying?"
The eunuch replied: "It's the Tala that Lafayette gave to Lord Long Live."
Tala means yogurt in Manchu. Pu Liang did not dare to ask any more questions, but the eunuch ordered again: "The old Buddha gave the order. This is a little thought between mother and son, so there is no need to record it!"
"Cha!"
A long time after the eunuch left, everyone heard crying outside, and they were all a little shocked: What is going on? Isn¡¯t the Queen Mother still breathing? Before he sent anyone out to inquire, he saw several eunuchs running up to him crying and wiping away their tears. They ran in a hurry and couldn't even speak fluently: "My lords, my lords, long live my lord, long live my lord, he is here!" "
Everyone was shocked and looked at each other with pale eyes: Mr. Long Live has been under house arrest in Yingtai, Zhongnanhai. I didn't hear that he had any serious illness before, so why did he suddenly die?
¡°But this kind of thing obviously can¡¯t be a joke. In the rush, Pu Liang called Jinghou, the left servant, and asked him to go to Zhongnanhai to take care of the funeral affairs. He also called Guo Zengxin, the right servant, to quickly prepare white cloths for the adults to wear. As the Minister of Rites, I can't leave because Emperor Guangxu has no heirs. If he dies, Lafayette will definitely order it. How can I leave?
Sure enough, not long after the eunuch went in to report the news, an imperial edict came from inside: "I entrust you with the edict of Empress Dowager Cixi to protect Kang Yizhao and Yuzhuang for her long life. Puyi, the son of the regent Zaifeng, is hereby appointed as the successor emperor."
The date is October 21, the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu's reign, which is November 14, 1908 in the Western calendar.
At noon the next day, Zhang Zhongyuan, the director of Taiyuan Hospital, entered the Leshou Hall and made the final diagnosis: "The Empress Dowager's six meridians have been extinguished." As soon as the news came out, the entire Leshou Hall burst into tears inside and outside. As for when Empress Dowager Cixi died, no one can tell. Maybe she really survived until Guangxu's death, or maybe she died long ago, and she could only be mourned after Guangxu's death was announced.
But in any case, China¡¯s politics has opened a new page, and the Qing Dynasty has taken a big step closer to its grave. (To be continued.
